Introduction
Picosecond laser is a method that uses ultra-short pulsed laser output, generating high thermal energy that directly penetrates into the deep layers of the skin, breaking up pigmentation and facilitating its decomposition and elimination from the body, thereby improving skin conditions. Picosecond lasers typically offer various modes, including scanning mode, fractional rejuvenation mode, blasting mode, clearing mode, and transparent mode.

Ultra picosecond is a method that uses ultra-short pulsed laser output, generating high thermal energy that directly penetrates into the deep layers of the skin, breaking up skin pigmentation and facilitating its decomposition and elimination from the body, thereby improving overall skin condition. Ultra picosecond treatments typically include scanning mode, fractional rejuvenation mode, blasting mode, clarity mode, and transparent mode. Specific details are as follows:

1. Scanning Mode

This mode scans the entire face, targeting dense subcutaneous connective tissue to remove superficial facial melanin. It is primarily used to treat dermal or epidermal pigmentation spots, offering benefits such as yellowish tone reduction and blackhead removal, resulting in a more even skin tone.

2. Fractional Rejuvenation Mode

This mode penetrates the skin's surface layer to stimulate collagen production in the dermis. It is mainly used to improve skin texture issues such as acne scars and enlarged pores, achieving pore tightening and skin refinement.

3. Blasting Mode

This mode reaches the dermal layer of the skin to shatter deep-seated melanin spots, effectively treating pigmentation at various depths. The longer the wavelength, the deeper the skin layer affected. It shows good therapeutic results for both superficial pigmentation (e.g., freckles, sunspots) and deeper pigmentation. However, after treatment with the blasting mode, the skin may form scabs, which typically fall off within about one week.

4. Clarity Mode

This mode primarily uses high energy and rapid pulses on the skin surface, inducing micro-thermal damage and triggering the skin’s natural healing process to stimulate collagen regeneration, thus improving skin elasticity and firmness.

5. Transparent Mode

Mainly used to treat pigmentation spots and hyperpigmentation, this mode precisely targets areas of pigment deposition, promoting the breakdown of existing melanin and regulating new pigment formation to lighten and reduce the appearance of dark spots.

When considering ultra picosecond treatment, it is recommended to visit a reputable medical facility and consult a qualified physician to select the appropriate mode and treatment plan based on individual skin conditions and needs.
